You want to setup a LAN so that the windows98 machines can login??

You would then need to use a program called samba.
http://us1.samba.org/samba/ <http://us1.samba.org/samba/>

Pretty straight forward to setup. I think Redhat actually has a copy already
installed. Have a look in /etc/rc.d/init.d for a file called smb . If its in
then samba is already installed.  

So what to do next is to run the command 'man smb'

Later

Chris

Subject: RH9 1st-timer.....

hi,

i'm using rh9 for the very 1st time.

Have trouble on the following:

1. RH9 manage to probe the monitor and vga card that i'm using but i can't
see the whole windows.(eg. the ok button at the bottom).  This is despite
after changing fr. a 14" monitor to a 15''.  I hv tried to use 800 x 600
resolution but that didn't work, so i hv to use the 640 x 480 resolution.

2. I've problem setting up a LAN. The server is running on RH9 server
edition whereas the clients are running on Windows98SE.  Any ideas on how to
setup a LAN?
Thanks

mbe
